In Vitro

The IC₅₀ values for LoVo, HCT116, and HT29 cell lines is 20 nM, 50 nM, 130 nM, respectively. In all three SN-38 resistant cell lines Top1 activity is maintained in the presence of high concentrations of SN-38^[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

SN-38, the active and toxic metabolite of the anticancer prodrug Irinotecan. At 30 minutes after administration, Irinotecan plasma concentrations in Slco1a/1b(-/-) mice are 1.9-fold higher than in the wild-type mice (1.89 vs. 1.01 μM, respectively), whereas SN-38 plasma concentrations of Slco1a/1b(-/-) mice are 8-fold higher compare with wild-type mice (0.4 μg/mL vs. 0.05 μg/mL, respectively). Overall plasma exposure [AUC_(5-240)] of Irinotecan is 1.7-fold higher in Oatp1a/1b knockout mice versus wild-type mice (209.8±6.7 vs. 120.9±4.4 μM/min; P<0.01), and 2.9-fold higher for SN-38 (50±2.9 vs. 12±2 μM/min; P<0.001)^[3].

Stock Solution Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Protocol 1

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil

Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (6.37 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Protocol 2

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: 2.08 mg/mL (5.30 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

Protocol 3

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: 2.08 mg/mL (5.30 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay^[2]

In vitro SN-38 sensitivity is determined using the MTT assay. Cells are seeded in 96-well plates, and a range of SN-38 concentrations is added the following day. Following 48 h of drug exposure, the medium is discarded and the plates are incubated with medium containing MTT (0.5 mg/mL) for 3 h. Acidified (0.02 M HCl) sodium dodecyl sulphate (20 %) is added to dissolve the formed formazan. Optical density at 570 nm (and 670 nm for background) is measured, and the cell viability is calculated in percent compared to untreated cells. Experiments are repeated three times and the mean IC₅₀ value ± standard deviation is determined. Relative resistance for each resistant cell line is calculated by dividing the mean IC₅₀ value of the resistant cell line by the mean IC₅₀ value of the corresponding parental cell line^[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration^[3]

Mice^[3]
Female wild-type, Slco1a/1b(−/−)(Oatp1a/1b knockout), Slco1a/1b(−/−);1B1(tg), and Slco1a/1b(−/−);1B3(tg) (liver-specific OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 humanized transgenic) mice of comparable genetic background (>99% FVB) between 8 and 14 weeks of age are used. Irinotecan (20 mg/mL in water-based solution containing NaOH, lactic acid, and sorbitol) is diluted with saline (to 2 mg/mL) for administration of 10 mg/kg; 5 μL/g bodyweight are administered intravenously to mice. SN-38 is dissolved in DMSO (1 mg/mL) and 1 μL/g body weight is administered intravenously to mice to achieve a dosage of 1 mg/kg. The experiments are terminated by isoflurane anaesthesia, heparin-blood sampling by cardiac puncture followed by cervical dislocation and tissue collection. Blood samples are centrifuged at 5,200 × g for 5 minutes at 4°C and plasma is collected and stored at −30°C until analysis.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
